Quote from: Newportnobby on Today at 12:05:10 PMI doubt there's any point in asking Dapol for an update on the Bulleid light pacific and Mogul as they probably don't know the answer.

Light pacific locos were flagged for Q2 2026
The GW Manor and GW mogul I've heard anything from Q2 to Q4 2026
The Ivatt tank is flagged for Q4 2026. It seems to have been forgotten in the rush to cut new metal (Minitrix version launched 1976, First Dapol version launched 2006 (30 year gap), and now a 20 year gap before the upgraded version).

Dapol's latest batch of class 33s were due Q4 2025... now down as Jan 2026

Rapido's class 45/46 peaks are flagged for Q1 2026...

Revolution's 313 PEP units are due late Q1 2026...
Revolution's PTA/JUA/JTA 102T tipplers are also due late Q1 2026... IIRC

I'm not tracking anything else due soon.

Wishing everyone here a Happy New Year!

The extra cost is probably to add magnets to them to stop them falling off the rails and bouncing on the ceiling.

Going by current promises I'd like to think the Farish 372-775A C class in SECR livery and my 4 car + 3 car Revolution tube stock will have been despatched before then.

Anyone else got pre orders due Qtr 1 this year?

Happy New Year everyone.

Thank you to the moderators for their never ending work on here.  There haven't been any complaints for a long time, so hopefully the level of moderation is right?!   A tough one to judge sometimes.

Thank you to the members who contribute to posts and threads, and for those that help immensely with making sure that the donations are topped up each month.

I hope you all have a great modelling year in 2026 and that you have good health.

Tank and the team.
 

Wot he said! Happy New Year.

Quote from: Graham on Today at 12:10:30 AMJust ordered some spares from Bachmann, great they have them in stock, but 30 quid for postage.
Really, it was only 25 a few weeks ago.
Still I suppose it is either get the spares of have the loco's sit in the display cabinet.

That's ridiculous. I guess it's aggregated P&P per item?

Yes it is ridiculous, there were 10 axels and one bogie frame, I think they are also recovering the VAT. Last time it was a complete bogie which cost 25 and the postage was 25.
Will have to look elsewhere for the spares or get them shipped to my brother, and pick up from there.
Still, as George says, it could be because we are upside or as Mick says it is because we are a long way away.

Aye, and not only that, we're upsidedown remember

Maybe not. It's a long way to Tipperary Orstralia
